RECORD COLLECTOR’S

GRADING SYSTEM

In order to assist everyone who buys and sells rare discs, Record Collector magazine has originated a set of standards for the condition of second-hand records, cassettes and CDs . Anyone buying or selling records through the book must use conditions to state what amount of wear and tear the disc,  its sleeve and/ or contents have been subject to. The seven standard condition categories , and description of what each one means, are listed below:

MINT:  The records itself is in brand new condition with no surface marks or deterioration in sound quality. The cover and any extra items, such as the lyric sheet , booklet or poster are in perfect cond. Records advertised as Sealed or unplayed should be Mint.

EXCELLENT: The record shows some signs of having been played , but there is very little lessening in sound quality. The cover and packaging might have slight wear and /or creasing.

VERY GOOD: The record has obviously been played many times , but displays no major deterioration in sound quality, despite noticeable surface marks and the occasional light scratch . Normal wear and tear on the cover or extra items, without any major defects, is acceptable.

GOOD: The record has been played so much that the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated , perhaps with some distortion and mild scratches. The cover  and contents suffer from folding, scuffing of edges, spine splits, discoloration , etc.

FAIR: The record is still just playqable but has not been cared for properly and displays considerable surface noise , it may even jump. The cover and contents will be torn, stained and / or defaced

POOR: The record will not play properly,  due to scratches , bad surface noise, etc. The cover and contents will be badly damaged or partly missing.

BAD: The record is unplayable or might even be broken, and is only of use as a collection-filler
